Ah who doesn't like some good voodoo attached to sports? I know I do. As a Yankee fan, I reveled in the Curse of the Bambino afflicting Red Sox fans for 86 years. It was a good run but it ended as all curses must at some time or another. But now, we have The Gisele Curse to enjoy.


In case you don't know what I'm talking about, the Red Sox reportedly were 'cursed' never to win a championship an...

Steve Huff Thanks, Paul! Good reading selections, all.


Catherine Hi Paul. Nice to meet you! :-)


Margaret Hi! Just stopping by to say hello and to thank you for adding me to your friend list.


message 8: by Heidi

Heidi Hi, Paul, thanks for the add! I have to confess that I don't read true crime myself, but my mother does, & then I get to hear all the gory details. I know she's read a couple of yours & we've both enjoyed them. :-)

Thank you for the add. I glanced through your bookshelves and what a great reading collection. The books that you've written also look fantastic. I have to admit...true crime for me is a tough, but often well worth the effort, read.

Rosemary Hi, Paul. Thanks for the invitation. Your books look great. Happy writing!


Jeremy I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me today. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.

Argh...this is terrible...

Again, I'm very sorry.

-Jeremy


Jeremy Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats.

-Jeremy :)

P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Jeremy Hi Paul!

Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.

-Jeremy :)


message 2: by Amy

Amy Mawdsley So when you have a chance I would love to know why you started writing true crime.
I find it fascinating from beginning to end. I am trying to branch out as a reader but I always crave crime.

I know you said you are working on a story so hit me up when work slows down.

:) Amy

Kim Hello I am Kim, very nice to meet you.
